Great Weather & other stuff...

Wow! Couldn't believe the thermometer actually hit 78 degrees today....this is totally unheard of here in Northern NY!! Not complaining, it's just such a radical change. Spent a portion of the afternoon out running the dogs around in the yard...trying to get them accustomed to each other. Things are going along pretty well in that department....although Chloe has always been the alpha female, and now I have a little one trying to CHANGE that. Not so good. Zippo just goes with the flow. We're trying to get them all ready for our road trip next week. The RV's maiden voyage will take place next week. Not a long trip, just a couple of hours. But we are starting out with baby steps!! It's a whole different feel than riding in a car actually. I have to remember NOT to stand up and face the back when my husband is putting is foot on the gas and lurching forward! Nice face plant....ALMOST through the glass door of the shower. I know, I know, I should be sitting down. Actually, I should be belted in! I've ordered Lady's carseat and it should be arriving on Tuesday, so the two little ones will be seated next to each other at the booth table. I'm supposed to be in the copilot seat, but may be caught roaming around checking out things as we go. You would be amazed at the little "rattles" and creaks that we can hear. Sometimes it just takes a little bit of tight packing or bubble wrap to fix that right up.

Looks like the weather will be holding with pretty warm temps forecast so YAY!! Hope y'all have a great weekend!!

It was nice here yesterday too and if we get another couple nice days I'll be 'mulching'. How nice to be going on a road trip!
Car seats for dogs? Interesting.
Have fun! Enjoy the weekend.

I want to know how you keep the little ones IN car seats? Is it harder than the little ones with 2 legs?

78? Really! That's almost too hot.

So the little one is fitting in good. :)

Oh how lucky you are to have some warmth, it is still cold here and we've had some showers~ not nice!

Actually it's much EASIER to keep the little ones with four legs in the seats!! As soon as we get in the car...IN they jump!

And yes, Lisa, I agree with you...it is almost TOO hot. Too radical of a change! We need the gradual buildup...

Sounds exciting!! Can't wait to hear all about it. Oh and me? Well I'm bracing for the snow we're supposed to get tonight. And I'm not at all bitter about it. *rolling eyes*

So glad someone is getting nice weather. It is suppose to be -17˚C next Thursday night. I can't believe it will be that cold here at the end of April. At least in 3 weeks from now we might have warm daytime temperatures. Or not. I hope the kids are all ready for your first road trip. Good you have learnt the safey tip during acceleration.
